OMG! Great Questions and Answers. I'mcurious, how do you read in the bath? Doesn't the book get wet?
Thanks :)
Hasn't happened yet (touch wood) :D
Off to bath :P
I could not read in the bath. I reluctanly answered the questions as well. My answers are short and to the point. I like it when we are asked on topic and we can discuss it in depth, this was nothing more than a survey. Anyhoo, Here is my Booking Through Thursday
You guys should give it a shot! Bubblebath, books, wine... what can be better?
I loved Spirit Bound too! Can't wait to read Last Sacrifice! :)
You said that you are too intimidated to start: A Thousand Splendid Suns. May I suggest that you listen to this book in an audio format (books-on-CD, playaway, etc). I was so glad that I did. There are lost of words that I had no idea how to pronounce, etc. and it was a magical experience, a very good book.
